1. Insert the stopper and check the length of the fuel line

and fill lines. The clunks should rest almost against the back of
the tank when the stopper is in place but move freely inside the
tank. Adjust the length of the fuel line until the proper length
has been reached. Once you are satisfied with the fit, secure
the stopper using the Phillips head screw in the stopper
assembly. Be careful not to over tighten the stopper.

2. Insert the tank at a slight downward angle as shown in the

first photo. Then level it out and slide it forward until the stopper
assembly enters the cutout for it in the first former. When fully in
place, it should rest as shown in the second photo.

3. Cut two small strips of 1/4" [6.4 mm] foam (not included)

approximately 1/2" [13 mm] wide. Insert these strips between
the fuel tank and the former. Glue them in place using CA.
Begin with the bottom piece of foam. You may need to
temporarily remove the tank to glue in the bottom foam.

4. Secure the tank using the supplied rubber bands.

5. Attach fuel line from each tube on the stopper to the

carburetor, muffler (vent for gasoline engines) and fill line.
Route the carburetor and muffler (vent) lines through the
holes you drilled in the firewall.
